TeX-9 is a ftplugin that aims to enhance the writing experience of high
quality documents with LaTeX and Vim. The goal of TeX-9 is to be simple
and Vimish, meaning that focus is on carefully thought-out key mappings
and features that are already present in a typical Vim installation. If
you need to write a thesis or research articles and insist on having only
one editor for all editing tasks, then TeX-9 is for you!

TeX-9 uses Python2.x as its backend and therefore a Vim installation with
Python support is required. TeX-9 is being developed on Linux running
Vim 7.4.
